Exclusive | Sturdy Rain Barrel Stand

Elevating your rain barrel lets you easily reach spigots to fill watering cans, and it increases water pressure, too. Our stand is made from long-lasting cedar with rustproof aluminum corners. Fits all of our rain barrels and supports up to 750 pounds.

This is a functional and sturdy stand for the rain barrels. Here in California, the drought is very severe. These stands and the rain barrels help keep my garden alive. Easy to put together and they look good under the barrels. I painted them to match the house. These stands make water conservation much easier.

I would not recommend buying this - we had to retro fit the whole thing. It was missing wood support brackets on the inside of the metal brackets for the top pieces. Has to buy wood and cut to size. Seriously, you could make this for half the price it it retailed atl.

This arrived partially assembled and went together easily. I was surprised at how good-looking it turned out. My wife said, "That's too nice to put outside." It's strong too, seeing that the rainwater urn can hold over 500 pounds of water.

I have been using rain barrels for several years. The gravity flow is slow, and sometimes trying to fill a bucket is difficult due to the "up" of the bucket. With the stands, I can more easily access the spigot on the barrel as well as fill a bucket in record time. I can also carry a hose around to my nearby plantings and water without carrying buckets! Thanks

For me the best thing about this stand is that it raises the rain barrels up which raises the head on the water level. This means gravity flow can carry the rain water a long way to the back of my property to water new shrubs and trees. Also I don't have to get down so low to change hoses or turn the faucet on or off. Great new product. Well worth it!

I bought the rain barrels with linking kit before the stands became available. I put the barrels under the downspout that releases the most water. Then (duh) discovered that they were downhill from the rest of the yard. Hiring someone to build me stands would have cost more than these. The stands not only allow me to water uphill, they also make the barrels easier to access. I wish the wood were finished with paint or some other protectant. I painted them myself and they look great.
